Ashton Kutcher Fancy Box Review – Dec 2013

Ashton Kutcher Fancy Box Review - Dec 2013 package

The Ashton Kutcher Fancy Box is the original celebrity subscription from Fancy. This is the first month where the box hasn't come in a box - Ashton did something a little different this month.

(We've been subscribers to the Ashton Kutcher box since the first month, but this month Fancy offered to send me this box at no cost for review purposes).

Ashton Kutcher Fancy Box Review - Dec 2013 card

The card from Ashton explained why no box this month - instead of sending some cool products, he wanted to send one high-quality piece for December.

Ashton Kutcher Fancy Box Review - Dec 2013 detail

Verdict: I like the design of this watch, and it is very well made. Plus the presentation of the packaging is great too! (My husband doesn't wear watches that much, but I think this will make an excellent gift).

I like the idea of only sending out high-quality items in boxes, but if there's only one item, it does make it a little bit riskier for subscribers if they don't like the item. What do you think of the December Ashton Kutcher Fancy Box?

I used my Black Friday code to get the Tyler Florence Fancy box. I was nervous because I haven’t been too wow’d by the other Fancy boxes this month so far. But I was really happy and it just seemed to fit Perfectly with other presents given to me.

Not sure how I feel about a one item box. It’s so risky. I enjoy ordering the boxes because I love all the surprises, not just one. While I don’t subscribe to the Ashton box I just subscribed to the Jennifer Love Hewitt and Coco Rocha. So now I’m curious on what will be in them since it will be my starter box. Anyone know when the Coco Rocha ships? JLH shipped out last week.

I used the Black Friday voucher to order the regular Fancy box after a long break in my subscription and was similarly disappointed. I received some shot glasses, a candle and some cheap ear buds. It reminded me of why I cancelled my subscription in the first place.

It does look like a ladies watch but it is pretty. I don’t think I would be very happy because I like getting surprised with a lot of things. I signed up for Coco Rocha on black Friday & still haven’t got anything. Now reading the comments here, knowing I may get a starter box is making me nervous.

If I was a guy I would be so mad!!! This looks like a women’s watch to me.

It looks like a ladies watch to me. I don’t think it would look good even on a petite man.

I was surprised to see what you received. I finally decided to order an Ashton Kutcher Fancy Box after following. I received a totally different box a few days ago. It included headphones, a poster, a scotch glass and a stylus. I can’t say I’m disappointed, though I would have liked this watch. I was under the assumption Fancy sent out the same box for everyone.

I think for the first month of any subscription they now send out a starter box. After that everyone should receive the same box though. Hope that helps!

That watch is beautiful. It looks like it could be worn by men or women. At least I would totally wear it.

Agree – I think the band-width is unisex and it’s a classic piece. Maybe I’ll try it out for myself! 🙂

I concur with Nancy. I really cannot describe how excited I was to get my first Fancy box and how disappointed I was. I am thinking that maybe since I used a 25% off Black Friday coupon, that maybe this is why the items were as not as great as the reviews I’ve seen on here. I also got the same candle, some really ugly sunglasses, and some ear buds. Definately not $39+ worth of items. I still love the items on the Fancy website and will probably be super jealous when I see a future great box.

Thanks Nicole, you know I wrote them and maybe I will hear from them, who knows? Are you going to write them and le them know how disappointed you were? The items were suppose to be $80 and there is no way they are work that. I found every last one on sale, way cut down on price, it was like hey were trying to get rid of stuff! I don’t know! Very frustrating and disappointing! I too signed up on Black Friday and feel they are penalizing us for that. Very unfair! Oh well! Don’t know what to do except write, write and write more. Hit the FB page and every review place I can and let people know how I feel. . . : ( well, beyond this everyone have a better Christmas and a blessed new year!

I so glad you got something nice in your box. I ordered the reg. Fancy Box and I can’t begin to tell you how disappointed I was in it. It was my first box and if I hadn’t paid for three would be my very last from the Fancy Company! They totally got it wrong. I put down media, gadgets and home as I get some much other stuff from the other categories, and they sent me all women’s things when that is the last thing I wanted. They have gotten a letter from me letting them know how disappointed I am. The sent me a eye lash curler, sunglasses at the end of dec.! A cheap Chapstick, a cheap candle this on sale for 9.50 in several stores or less! Not $80 worth and definitely not from the categories I chose. Oh well, all boxes can’t be winners and fancy box as much as I was looking forward to it lost all glory in my eyes!!! Never again!
